I just checked the 5 or 6 pairs of Converse in my room and they are all made in Nam or China.

Why is there no Vans Appreciation Thread?

Just looked at mine from Zappos, made in China.

Anyone know if Jack Purcell has a slim model? Love my slim ox CTs.

Good to hear. I usaully like things that are made in INdia. Just because i think it is such a romantic type place......where yoga is so common and India reminds me of the British Empire and things like that.
I usually dont like made in china things but when it comes to converse that seems ok. Nice.

^ been trying to track this shoe down in my size for about 3 months now, sold out everywhere and converse says they've ceased production on it =/

the new woolrich collab looks decent but I'm not really sure I'm a fan of the the additional black accent. that and i'd still take canvas over wool any day:

I just got word from converse:

Hello,

We have checked with our product team and they have informed us that those 2 colors were dropped from production. Only the Navy color will be available. We apologize for any inconvenience.

If we can assist you further, please let us know.

Have a great day!

Several stores started getting the navy versions in stock in the U.S. from what I heard.
